Cyclonic Circulation Brings Rain and Squally Weather to South India
IN · Published Sep 1, 2026
An upper air cyclonic circulation is currently positioned over South Coastal Tamil Nadu and its surrounding areas at an altitude of 5.8 km above mean sea level.
This system is influencing weather patterns across the region.

Impact & Risks

The cyclonic circulation and associated weather conditions are likely to bring heavy rainfall to isolated areas in South Konkan-Goa, which could lead to localised flooding or waterlogging. Squally weather with wind speeds of 40-50 km/h, gusting up to 60 km/h, is expected along and off the Karnataka and Kerala coasts, as well as in the Lakshadweep and Comorin areas. These conditions pose risks to fishermen and small vessels operating in these regions. Residents in affected areas should remain cautious of potential disruptions caused by heavy rain and strong winds.
